An Ordinary Path to Immortality

The chaotic energy surged in, and after Fang Ping refined it and absorbed it into his dantian, it would soon be absorbed by the sacred tree. At the beginning, Fang Ping could barely support the sacred tree to absorb energy.

However, as the seedling grew bigger and bigger, from a small embryo bud to two tender leaves, Fang Ping's speed of absorbing and refining chaotic energy was no longer enough to support the needs of the sacred tree.

So Fang Ping had to swallow the elixir and at the same time practice the exercises to absorb the nearby spiritual energy.

Later, the energy required for the growth of the sacred tree increased. Even if Fang Ping swallowed all kinds of natural treasures, they would be absorbed by the sacred tree instantly.

In order not to affect the growth of the sacred tree, Fang Ping had no choice but to try to forcefully absorb the demonic energy into his body while absorbing the spiritual energy to see if the sacred tree could absorb it.

As a result, the demonic energy was taken into Fang Ping's body, and after being wrapped by the chaotic energy and entering his dantian, it not only did not cause any negative impact on Fang Ping.

Instead, it was absorbed by the sacred tree without any hindrance.

Before his body was transformed into a chaotic body, Fang Ping did not have anything related to the demon race in his body.

The reason why he absorbed any other spiritual energy was because he had the corresponding spiritual roots.

However, absorbing and refining demonic energy was a unique ability of the demon race. Unless human cultivators refined the demon blood in excess, they could not absorb demonic energy at all.

If they forcefully absorbed it, it would not only damage their own meridians and flesh, but it might also cause demonic energy to invade their blood and soul, turning them into half-human, half-beast monsters.

This time Fang Ping tried to absorb the demonic energy into his body. He originally wanted to let the sacred tree absorb it. The result was just as he hoped. The demonic energy was completely absorbed by the sacred tree, including the chaotic energy, and there was no trace of breath left in his body.

So Fang Ping began to gradually increase the speed of absorbing demonic energy. In the demon world, the demonic energy was rich and inexhaustible. As long as Fang Ping was willing, he could continue to absorb it.

After absorbing the chaotic energy entangled in the demonic energy, the growth rate of the Fusang sacred tree seemed to be faster. The two tender leaves grew and stretched little by little, and new buds began to grow between the two leaves.

While the sacred tree was sprouting and growing leaves, its root system was actually growing faster.

In Fang Ping's Dantian Jindan, a small half of the space was quickly occupied by the roots of the sacred tree.

And the more the roots grew, the faster and more energy it absorbed.

Fang Ping frowned slightly. If this continued, wouldn't his Jindan be filled up and burst by the sacred tree?

Thinking of this, Fang Ping couldn't help but worry. This was the Fusang sacred tree, which grew tall and upright, and the branches that stretched out could occupy an entire state.

How could his small Jindan accommodate it?

But now the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. Between the future Jindan being burst by the sacred tree and letting the sacred tree pass through its infancy and then finding a way to solve it, Fang Ping chose the latter without hesitation.

The surrounding demonic energy was attracted by Fang Ping and kept coming. Even because the demonic energy was surging too fast, it brought gusts of breeze.

Fang Ping was surrounded by a dense demonic aura, and the chaotic energy in his body was fully activated, sucking the chaotic energy around his body into his body and then sending it to his Dantian.

As he continued to absorb various energies, the second pair of leaves of the sacred tree finally grew out, and at the same time, the first pair of leaves had begun to turn from emerald green to withered and yellow.

The sacred tree with new leaves grew a little taller, and the appearance of the sacred tree changed from the bean sprout shape at the beginning to a state that looked a bit like a young tree seedling.

As time passed, the buds in the middle of the second pair of leaves continued to grow upwards, and like petals blooming, they turned into two new leaves. The young leaves that had just grown at the bottom finally turned completely withered and yellow, and fell off the sacred tree.

The withered leaves fell to the ground, or more accurately, fell into Fang Ping's golden elixir, and instantly turned into two wisps of clear air and merged into Fang Ping's golden elixir.

At this moment, Fang Ping only felt a slight pain coming from his gray golden elixir, and then this feeling began to spread throughout his body.

Fang Ping was slightly panicked, but he couldn't stop it. Fortunately, this slight pain came suddenly and disappeared quickly.

When this feeling finally disappeared and everything returned to normal, Fang Ping suddenly had a glimmer of enlightenment in his heart, which made him very curious.

"The ability to absorb and refine demonic energy?"

The pure energy transformed from the two dead leaves actually transformed his body, giving him the ability to refine and absorb demonic energy like a demon beast.

Fang Ping understood it instantly after thinking about it.

This is the Fusang sacred tree, a rare treasure root in the world.

Looking at the entire Yuanling Continent for countless years, it seems that there is only one tree occupied by the Jinwu clan.

There has never been a record of a second Fusang tree.

It came into being, and it itself contains the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, and the luck of creation. The first pair of branches and leaves when it was born are as rare as the top treasures of heaven and earth.

If in the outside world, a powerful person took the dead leaf away and refined it before it fell to the ground, it would most likely surpass the innate spiritual treasure and reach the level of a supreme treasure, or even an innate supreme treasure.

Thinking of this, Fang Ping began to feel unbalanced again.

This level of supreme treasure actually only brought him such a simple ability.

While smiling bitterly in his heart, Fang Ping's mind moved slightly, and he directly used the ability he had just obtained to fully operate the skills and began to absorb and refine the demonic energy into his body.

Feeling the demonic energy surging into his body, Fang Ping's dissatisfaction in his heart instantly dissipated.

Because he didn't know his own ability, in order to provide energy for the sacred tree, he tried his best to absorb the demonic energy.

As a result, he almost burst the demonic energy he absorbed in one breath.

With this absorption speed, even the top-level sacred beasts with the best qualifications should not be much better than him.

"Okay, I'll forgive you reluctantly." Fang Ping got the advantage and still sold it.

He is only a human now, but he has the ability to absorb demonic energy at the same speed as the top-level sacred beasts with top bloodlines.

Even the Golden Crow and White Tiger with the purest bloodlines Fang Ping has seen seem to be far inferior to Fang Ping.

"In that case, then continue to absorb."

This is an opportunity, an opportunity that others dream of but cannot get.

Fang Ping tried his best to absorb the demonic energy into his body crazily and refine it through the meridians, so that the demonic energy merged into the chaotic energy and became a part of the chaotic energy, and then sent it to the golden elixir for the sacred tree to absorb.

Soon, new leaves grew out, and the second pair of tender leaves on the seedling of the sacred tree also fell.

Fang Ping's mind moved, and he wanted to collect the tender leaves to try to see if he could use them to refine treasures.

Then he thought that if it could give him some ability like the two leaves just now, it would definitely be more cost-effective than having two more pieces of protection.

After all, no matter how good the treasure is, as the cultivation level continues to improve, there will always be a day when it will be eliminated.

If it can become a self-possessed ability to continue to grow, the benefits will definitely be greater.
